Yes, I think this part is correct. If an error happens, then it should
be reported to the user so they can fix it.

But this is not correct.
If a function like devm_clk_get() returns NULL, then it's not an error,
it's something where the user deliberately chose to disable the feature.
It shouldn't trigger an error message and the rest of the driver should
be written to accomodate it.

So we should assign the NULL pointer here and add NULL checks to make
sure that it doesn't lead to a NULL dereference.
